Fun! Is it a Favorite or Little Scout?
Grandpa used to shoot rabbits in Grandma's garden with a Stevens, from the second floor window at the top of the stairs. Brings back good memories.
Looks like you did a nice job on the rifle. A little bit of a bygone era.

You got a Stevens Favorite for 12.50? I hate you.

That looks like a Little Scout 14 1/2, I have one and it needs work, new springs and a firing pin retainer.

Please, tell me where the police actually sell guns to the public!
It is a Lil' Scout 14 & 1/2 model.
Bought it in 1987 in California (I had an FFL at the time).
Needed a new breech block and that took years to find but was only $5 from a parts dealer at a show when I did locate it.
I refinished the wood and metal (polished and cold blued) and installed the sights as the originals were missing.
I was stunned at how well it shoots.
Here's a 5/8" group after raising the point of aim. Always puts 2 touching with a flier out a bit. Probably my fault.
